    Do you find it more financially rewarding to tell a company you'll stay out 3-4wks(then home for 3-4 days) as opposed to asking for 2-3wks out?...My guess is they will run you further knowing you don't need to be around your home in such a short period...What's the reality of that?..Or doesn't it matter?...

    Walstib, that has been my experience.. it usually takes a few days to a week to get into a good groove once you come back from hometime, I typically stay out 6-8 weeks before asking to go home, but often get by the house once or twice during that time
     
    walstib Thanks this.
